When is the Steam summer sale?

I have seen a few videos/posts talking about great deals during the Steam summer sale. They appear to have some sales on now - but the discounts are not that great. (They bumped the price of GTA V to $80 so they could claim it is on sale for $59). Is this the sale they are talking about or is it up-coming?

    Take a closer look. The 'bumped' price is actually the cost for the base game plus a cash card for GTA Online, this bundle is then discounted.

    So yes, when you look at the listing on the search page for GTA V, it says £51.98 discounted by 25% which looks very suspicious, but if you check out the store page itself it shows a GTA V + cash card bundle at £51.98 discounted to £38.98, and the base game on its own for the price it has always been sold at, £39.99.

    Although yes, it's weird that the base game doesn't get a discount too - this is Rockstar's decision though, not Steam's. It's certainly not something you'll see often elsewhere during the sale.

    The summer sale is starting RIGHT NOW! Go grab your wallet and pour some nice ol' green papers on GabeN, he deserves it. In all seriousness though, summer sale starts now and will last a couple weeks. If you happen to miss it, you can still go for the fall/winter sales. There are a bit less sales though
